Fireball
I know an atmospheric scientist (retired). If I see him tomorrow at my carving class, I'll try to remember to ask.
Since I can't edit the post due to aging out of the edit window, I'm responding to myself, ask for further clarification. Alex, do you just want it as a percentage of atmosphere, or might it make more sense to look at it in an integrated sense of graduated concentration? This guy may have a handle on that, though I don't know for sure.

I've worked out the equilibrium temperature w/o greenhouse gases. Does anyone know a not too difficult explanation how to take into account the co2 blanketing effect in that radiation balance as a function of the %?
